If that's the Ausie's rules on buying back damaged money, then this guy should get close to if not all of it back. They're all there, just smaller than expected. This wouldn't have happened with a US dollar.  Grin

Your problem may be one card doesn't like the ATI driver it has to use. You may get better results with two catalyst drivers, if possible. I believe 5000 series cards prefer ATI Stream 2.6 or less

DeathAndTaxes has an all out watercooling 5970 set up, or at least he did. You should check out some of his build pics.

Cooler is always better for electronics parts.
84  Other / Off-topic / Statement From Zhou Tong's Mother about his troubles on: July 30, 2012, 11:02:00 AM
I received an email from Zhou Tong's Mother asking me to post this promptly.

shu, shu, shu...Don't cry Zhou Tong.



When I talked to Uncle, he was concerned.



Uncle said he would help.



Uncle has many friends in the PRC,



with which he has good relations.



He said not to worry about police involvement,



he would be the first to know if there were any problems.



If it escalates too fast even for him,



he knows a few lawyers to help.



Uncle is greatful of the jade rabbit, he said he will put it with the rest of the relics you sent him.



So you won't be sad, meimei would like to play a song for you to be happy.



Sincerely,

Ma Zhou

You will need some programming skills to sift the dump.

Here is one of the best charge controlers for wind on the market. It will extract more usable energy than most other charge controllers because Midnite Solar has developed software to work with the power output variations of wind turbines. The majority of charge controllers on the market are designed for PV systems and there is a significant efficiency loss when they are used for wind power systems.

Deka and Trojan are two batteries for RE I'm aware of:

88  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: How safe is this Uncomplicated Firewall setup? on: July 29, 2012, 12:36:20 AM
There's still plenty of room for DNS Spoofing, MITM (there are 7 types, 4 are local), browser attacks (If you surf on it.), and router compromises.
There are custom attack tools that use multiple vulnerabilities simultaneously to overwhelm IDS's and Firewalls where a certain combo allows one to get through. The double or triple combo confuses the defense system logic allowing the attacker to succeed with an exploit when using just one exploit would normally be blocked.

So, "Chen", from China, breaking into an Australian companies computers, or accessing Japanese computers, is not committing any "economic crime" when stealing money or credit card data from them.

In what country was the Bitcoinica server hosted?

Yes, but Kano said it's got a snowballs chance in hell and rjk said typing U+2285 didn't work for him.  Tongue

I know why Zhou tong may be worried about an investigation.

----
In China, serious cases of corruption are punished by the death penalty.
During the 1980s, "economic crimes" such as bribery, drug-trafficking, and embezzlement were added to the legal code.
Capital punishment in China can be imposed on crimes against national symbols and treasures, such as theft of cultural relics.
Capital punishment is also imposed on inchoate offenses, that is, attempted crimes which are not actually fully carried out, including repeat offenses such as attempted fraud.
A form of execution called Ling Chi (slow slicing), or death by/of a thousand cuts, was used in China until its abolition in 1905.
Current methods of capitol punishment in China are lethal injection and shooting. Lethal injection is more commonly used for "economic crimes".
Execution vans are unique to China, however.

What happens when the grid goes down? You will need batteries on site.

You don't read signatures?

No, not really....

I'm guessing BTC? What plans do you use?
Bartman and Fink, sometimes Forbes.

Here is a vertical helical blade from Holland:



It's more efficient than a vertical blade for low rpm generators.

95  Economy / Goods / Re: Wind powered generators on: July 28, 2012, 10:04:00 PM
carbon fiber and rear earth magnets cost a lot
UHM...not really. I can build a total custom 2KW wind powered generator for about ⊅60, materials cost, labor not included. Slightly more for a helical blade like they use in Holland. Do you need 12v, 24v, or 48v output?
Their will be more money required, but not to build just a generator. You will need things like a charge controller, anti-island device if you plan on tying into a grid, deep cycle batteries with 200-300AH, tower support structure, etc.
You could also further reduce some power consumption in a house by using a joule ringer, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkZKD7LHCzM

Nothing in this thread so far beats the current logo. Not even close. Until something comes close, they are all useless. That's my opinion anyway.
A professional designer will be working with me on it starting Tuesday. You ain't seen nothing yet Wink

Don't forget to show them the new Bitcoin currency symbol ---> . Grin
That is new. I don't think I like it. :c
It's a math symbol called, 'not a superset of' (U+2285), which is like saying 'not less than nor equal to'. (To what? Fiat currency, of course.)
-I'll bid ⊅10 for a BFL Single.-

Rewrite Bitcoinica code slightly and repeat scam on future newbies
If anybody does this, I will become a black hat hacker, after watching some youtube vids on how to crack stuff with Backtrack, and pop that box.
You have been warned. Grin

I'm currently looking at getting 364 days (not 365) in jail and a $2,500 USD fine for driving with a revoked license. That's the max penalty, but I'm pretty sure I won't receive anywhere near that. Then again, I could be locked up with ALL those that copied movies from and to their VCRs.

I hope you brushed up on your chess skillz, they'll come in handy while your inside and don't accept any favors. Grin
